Creating and editing maps

If there are no maps in the Storage, you will be prompted to create one. When creating a map, you can change its default settings:

You can also change these settings using the Control panel above the map:

The Map control panel allows you to:

  • add, clone, and delete maps;
  • switch between maps using the drop-down list;
  • save changes manually;
  • select which value is displayed as the map node name (a similar menu is available in the Network tree, see here);
  • enable the grid and link labels (for all maps);
  • align objects on the current map to the grid (enables automatic alignment);
  • center the map.

By default, the map is saved automatically every 10 minutes and when you switch between maps. You can disable autosave or change its settings in Options. If autosave when switching between maps is disabled, clicking the Save button while editing multiple maps saves changes to all of them.

Currently, network maps can only be created manually.

You can save network maps as PNG or JPG image files and print them using the available tools.

To do this, click the icon next to the Search bar and select the desired format.
